Scottie Pippen was one of the best players of his generation and played an important role in the Bulls’ two three-peats. He partnered with Michael Jordan at the Bulls and became a part of the franchise’s history. However, lately, Pippen has been a part of several controversies, primarily surrounding his former teammate, Jordan.
Pippen recently launched his book ‘Unguarded’ and has talked about his career. However, the memoir has attracted controversies lately because of Pippen’s transparent takes on Jordan. Pippen is again in the news for letting his ex-wife, Larsa, know his thoughts about her ex-boyfriend. Larsa’s ex-boyfriend was Minnesota Timberwolves star, Malik Beasley.
Beasley pled guilty to the charge of felony in December of 2020 and was sentenced to jail. However, Beasley served only 78 days and was released on August 2021.
